Amaranth Plants

I have large garden and don’t know much about what to plant. But amaranth is a beautiful plant and I grow some of it as decoration – but I have no use for the seeds. Can you please let me know how to cook with them?

This flower is dark red, tall, feathery, not too bushy. I bought both pictured flowers as cut flowers in a bouquet from a farmers market in August 2017, and would love to know what they are. Thank you! Dawn
